Hi,

   I have a simple file as follows:

There are in the total of 513 words in sinus.txt, lung.txt and stomach.txt.
151 sinus.txt
105 lung.txt
257 stomach.txt


What I want to do is to print the first line in the Description column, and have each of the following lines  be entered into the database by assigning the number as $words, and the filename into the Filename column.
The script in the following performs exactly the way I wanted, except for the fact that in my database, each of the entries looks something like this: sinus.txt followed by a square for each of the variables that contains text. I don't have this problem for my numbers at all.

  for ($i=1; $i <= 3; $i++) {

echo $i . ": " . $lines4[$i] . "\n";
list($words, $file) = explode(" ", $lines4[$i]);
echo "File: $file has $words words\n\n";
substr($file, 0, -3);
//substr($lines4['0'],0,-1);
$query3="INSERT INTO youtoo(Description,Filename,Words) VALUES ('$lines4[0]','$file', '$words')";
$result1= mssql_query($query3) or die ("Couldn't Create New Entry into Database $myDB");

}

I tried using rtrim(), chop() using the $line4 as I have declared and there is no use. Finally, I used substr(), but this does not seem to get what I wanted either, and the square is still in the way. I checked my text file in the text editor, and I see nothing that could have produced the square during the database entering process.

Does anyone know what I have done wrong here? Anything is appreciated.
